Wordpress 2.6 is more than a blog
Submitted by Bryan on July 16, 2008 - 6:32pm
Wordpress 2.6 was released just a couple days ago. During the time I have covered Wordpress, I have always considered Wordpress more as blogging application and not really a full featured content management system. However, ever since I installed Wordpress 2.5 on one of my sites, I can't help but think that Wordpress now rocks as a CMS.
If you haven't looked at Wordpress in the past year or so, I recommend that you do yourself a favor and take a look at what you may be missing out.
Below is a brief video tour of 2.6 prepared by Matt and company.









I agree
This this last update with change tracking is fantastic. It's so good, in fact, that we now make all new small business websites based on WordPress. It just makes sense to get clients to use it. They can update more content on the fly instead of calling us to do it. At the same time it simplifies our maintenance efforts.
I would venture to say that anyone making a typical small business website that's NOT in WordPress platform, is really doing a disservice to themselves and their clients.
The "Press This" app is also pretty darn cool too. :)
